The traffic situation was well under control in McHenry over the holiday weekend, with only one minor accident reported by city police. 1 Francis E. Weiler of Rt. 6, McHenry, stopped at the inr tersection of Waukegan road and Green street, after which his motor failed. In starting again, the car went several feet backward and into the bumper of an auto driven by Paul R. Mattingly of Lake Forest. FINE RENEWS DISCUSSIONQDVER SHERIFFS ARREST Considerable publicity has been given the traffic ticket given Mrs. Julia Covert of Algonquin, who nard a $10 fine and costs of $10 nti a charge of running a red li^ht in Woodstock. A charge of resisting arrest was dropped. The sheriff's office said her arrest immediately after she was reported to have torn from the sheriff's office window a picture of Henry Cabot Lodge, then candidate for vicepresident on the Republican ticket, was just n coincidence. However, Mrs. Covert maintained that her prrest was more than a coincidence. Chief Deputy "Edward Dowd, who made the arrest, claimed When he did so he was not aware that the picture had been torn down. As a result of the original controversy, Sheriff Melvin Griebel was arrested and charged with misuse of his office by posting a poetical sign in the window. The charge against him was later dismissed. Musin' & Meanderin' Continued from Page 1 W. E. Bacon of Grayslake is receiving the congratulations of friends this week on receiving a first place rating on his entry of hickory nuts in the twenty-fourth annual tri-state nut show, held at New Haven, 111., on Nov. 19. The nuts came from a tree on the Timothy Bacon homestead in Wauconda, now owned by Glenn Bacon, a grandson. n Ed. Bacon, who was bora on this farm in 1881, relates that th^ nuts from this tree were always gathered first by the family. The nut has a thin shell* easily cracked, leaving two tasty, plump half meats, free from the £helj. Nine states ra<jk part in t show. The second place iuC^gyv nut was frorti Pennsylvrf W. E.

Block 22, which is west of Front street between Waukegan road and Main, showed a large deficiency based upon present use in this area. However, because of the degree of usage of this retail space, it Was not recommended that any attempt be made to satisfy t^e p&frkMg defiCtenty th&e. Planners observe that if walking were not a factor, there would be no parking problems. They point out that many cities have an over-supply of parking in the downtown area but have a critical shortage in certain blocks, as is the case in McHenry. Such shortages can be determined only by considering how far parkers will walk in relation to their destination. Stanton & Rockwell feel it is necessary to increase the off-street parking facilities as soon as possible in order to satisfy the deficiencies in the Riverside Drive area. They feel that the shortage in Block 13 can be partially satisfied by the surplus in Block 12, which is on the west side of Green street, and that by eliminating a non-conforming use in Block 19, the deficiency of space in this block can also be satisfied. One point they stress, that there will always be a parking shortage In some locations at certain times. This fl«fs not Justify expensive additional facilltes. Continued from Page 1 dation, told the assembled group that this year 25 per "ent of the campaign will go to the National Foundation for research. The balance of 75 per cent will be split between national and local organizations for patient care. In case of an epidemic, 5 per cent may be secured from the 25 per cent "iven to the National headquarters. Boehm continued to state that polio funds are presently helping 40,000 patients with $13% million spent for patient aid. He added that at the end of this year there will be only an estimated 3,000 new patients compared to between 30.000 and 40.000 before the Salk vaccine came into use. WM. FERGOTTS OBSERVE 5P+H ANNIVERSARY VETERANS MEET DEC. 1 The Decemoer meeting of the McHenry Barracks of the Veterans of World War I will be held Thursday evening, Dec. 1, at 8 p.m. at the Legion home.

Besides their family, two members of the original bridal party attended, Mrs. Frank fCfclfa) A'ff&fns of'11 McHefflry and Mrs. Margaret Noonan of Woodstock. The Hergotts were married in Johnsburg Nov. 23, 1910. After residing in various locations in this area, they moved into their present home fifteen years ago, coming here from the Spring Grove community. . Dec. 7 Named "Do It Day" by TB Chapter Next Wednesday, Dec. 7, has been designated "Do-it- Day" by Mrs. Dana Dawes, Marengo, president of the McHenry County Tuberculosis association. The annual Christmas Seal campaign got under way Nov. 14, when over 22,000 letters containing Christmas Seals went in the mail. Mrs. Dawes said, "T h e Christmas Seal campaign is our only method of fund raising. Do-it-Day has been set aside as a day of special emphasis, for our contributors to send their donations to our campaign. The campaign funds are used for the tuberculin testing program in all of our schools, for health education materials, rehabilitation and research." To date, contributors have sent in $5,218. Last year's total was $18,000. With less than one third of the goal reached, "Doit- Day" could help reach the goat. Bernard Barnett, manager of the Waukegan, Illinois, Social Security Office, said today, "There are certain minimum things people should know about social security for their own protection. Perhaps one of the most important of these Is not to rely too much upon information supplied by friends, neighbors, or relatives." Barnett explained that placing too much reliance upon these wellmeaning advisers sometimes leads to loss of some benefits. He then cited the case of a widow who recently filed for benefits at the Waukegan Social Security office. The idow -was age 65 when she ap!- plied for widow's benefits. She had been a widow for many years and would have been eligible for benefits at age 62 if she had applied then. By not applying earlier, she had lost two years of benefits. When she was asked Why she had not claimed her benefits earlier, she replied thd| one of her relatives hadstoMpher that no one could get benefits before age 65. So sjbe waited until she reached fha$< age. Barnett added that "Since November, 1956, benefits have been payable to widows at age fi2. The case of this widow illustrates that when information about social security is needed, an inquiry should be made at the social security office." •ti Performance Wins Favor Mayor George Freund is shown congratulating Ralph Madsen of Crystal Lake, production manager of the Crystal Lake Players, after that group had presented "The Girls in 509" in McHenry. Looking on are Mrs. Freund and Mrs. Richard Matt, together with two "candystrippers."

N0RSRSSS PUTS TOE MERBY IN .CHRISTMAS At this time of year, feeder cattle are being shipped into feed lots for growing and. fattening operations. Recently, fifty head of calves weighing about 400 lbs. each were received at the -University of Illinois. Twenty of these were turned out on 10 acres of new legume-grass seeding. The other thirty were fed legume grass silage in dry lot. Twenty out of the thirty calves in the dry lot developed shipping fever; twelve developed foot rot. Gains over pay weight averaged 42 lbs. per head over a two-month period. The pasture calves, on the other hand, had no shipping fever and no foot rot. They gained an average of 70 lbs. per head over pay weight in the same two month period. This same thing has been observed by some cattle feeders in Iowa. Where possible, this system of handling recent arrivals seems to be best. Unfortunately, in many cases, due to sj&ce limitations or for other reasons, cattle cannot be handled in this manner. Feed manufacturers, in cooperation with pharmaceutical houses, have products available which can help reduce thefee problems- of- shipping fe^ervahd foot 'Mt:: - ' •;T These proQucts work better as preventives, as a generifl rule, and should be used whefe there is any question as' to po!stibilities of developing shipping fever or foot rot. r The loss of a very tiny percentage of feeder calves wfjl generally cost far more thj&i t h e p r e v e n t i v e t r e a t m e n t s available. ,J Gilts selected for breeding purposes should be separated from the rest of the herd when they weigh between 150 lbs. and 170 lbs., research indicates. Also, they should be 8 months old and weigh 250 lbs. before breeding. Separate feeding of the breeding stock is highly recommended by most authorities on swine raising and is an important part of the feeding program advocated! by many leading feed manufacturer^. Gilts which are to be used for breeding may be fed on a lower energy-type ration, but the ration should include a good, well-fortified supplement to guard against vitamin or mineral deficiencies during this period. Seven. to ten days prior to breeding, sows and gilts should be "flushed*'; that is feed intake should be increased. "Hand feeding" during gestation is highly advisable in order to prevent sows and gilts from becoming too fat. If they become too fat, there may be difficulties at farrowing time.

According to Mrs. Glenna Lamkin, University of Illinois home economist, surveys show that today's average shopper does little detailed planning at home. One survey reported that out of fourteen purchases made on each trip to the supermarket, only four of the items were actually planned. Of the other ten, seven were things she hadn't planned to buy when she made her sketchy list. Because of this unplanned buying, the shopper is continually open to new ideas/ suggestions and sales influences that she may welcome. But she may also spend more money than necessary. Since advertising is legitimate and helpful to the shopper, it's up to her to use this information positively in making choices if she really wants to control expenses. The shopper must learn to buy food based upon needs first and then, if the budget permitM/ upon wants. Facing up to the reality of what foods are luxuries may he the hardest element in planning. Needp should be based on the nutritional requirements of each member. Over-spending for food may mean that too much food, especially of the wrong kind, is being eaten. For example, there may be too many snack foods that carry little in the way of nutritive value other than calories. Mrs. Lamkin also says that it pays to develop some skill in cooking and not rely entirely on packaged prepared food?. Most of the ready-to-serve' or "convenience" foods add to food costs. It's still true that, when less money is available, more cooking must be done. And, for interesting meals, it helps to know how to cook a variety of foods. Systematic planning before shopping also helps to bring order out of the chaos of always wondering what to eat, rushing to the store at the last minute and ; having a ~ 'Yeast" one day and- a "famine" the next. With planned shbpping, busy hoinemakers will find it much easieir to accomplish other activities. And the whole family will benefit from this positive action. An electronic range Is speedier than a conventional range. But there is a question about how well it cooks. One report from the University of Illinois home economics department comparing b e e f roasted in an electronic and a conventional oven indicates that the conventional oven produced the more satisfactory products. The roasts were more palatable and retained more thiamine and moisture than the roasts cooked ih the electronic range. Elizabeth Hallmark, graduate student, made this study under the direction of Frances Van Duyne, head of foods research. She tested Seven rolled beef rib roasts by each cooking method. The most noticeable differences in the meat cooked ih the electronic oven were the lack of brownness cn the outside and the lack of Juiciness and flavor. Instead of 'the normal brown color, the fat covering and exposed surfaces of the roasts cooked in the electronic over had a grayish cast. Also, parts of these roasts were hard and crusty and difficult to carve. Roasts cooked in the electronic oven also shrank more than the roasts cooked in the conventional range. Cooking losses through evaporation and drippings were at least twice as great as in the conventional oven. Cooking time per pound averaged about 7 minutes in the electronic oven and about 40 minutes in the conventional oven. Miss Hallmark says it is possible that an electronic oveu might produce a satisfactory beef roast if some r way could be found to brown the meat during roasting. SAFETY COUNCIL • SAYS: MAKE YOUR GIFT A SEAT BELT Christmas gift suggestions for the man who has everything -- almost: Buy him (or her, if your friend's a hep woman driver) an auto seat belt. It could mean a really merry Chmtmas for someone -- by saving a life! "The motorist who has everything (except a seat Welt, that is) could wind up with nothing but tpduble if he gets in a traffic accident," said the National Safety Council. The Council, a non-governmental agency organized in 1913 to prevent all kinds ofoccidents, heartily endorses Sat belts at Christmas -- or any other time of the year, for that matter. "Seat belts," it said, are the, No. 1 device now available to reduce the number of traffic deaths and injuries. "Use of seat belts by every driver -- and the day may come when this will be nearer reality -- could cut the tr^ic death toll by 5,000 a year, the number of injuries 60 per cent. "Wish a friend a truly mer-^ ry Christmas this year. Give' him a life-saving seat belt." (And while you're at it, why hot take that idea one step further. Buy belts for yourself and your family, too.) Any religion small enoigti for us tq understand compfftely would not be large enough to cover all our needs.
